Then the stone is revalued with raw materials from the Volcanic Eifel. These are non-perforated hand-moulded brick for the façade. The brick is covered with sand on five sides and provided with an oblong sloping groove on one flat side (frog, group 1). The surface of the brick is red. The colour shades of the brick vary from orange-red to bright red. The King Boudewijn Stadium in Brussels is constructed with Spanish Red.
